Methods of Usage:

Neat: Place a drop or two directly onto clean and intact skin. A couple drops on the wrists, shoulders, temples or neck imparts a strong woodsy and honey-like aroma. Note: Helichrysum should not be used undiluted on facial skin, and should only be used undiluted on the skin for fragrance purposes, or to stop bleeding from an open wound. Helichrysum essential oil is too concentrated to be used for muscle tension or other physical healing when used neat.

Blended with Carrier: Use 10 drops per oz of carrier oil such as Argan, Meadowfoam Seed, Olive or Coconut Oil, and massage over any area where you would like for healing to occur.

Bath: Place 3-5 drops into 3 handfuls of bath salt and disperse, or add 8 drops to vodka or whole milk and disperse.

Shower: Soak for at least 3 minutes in steamy shower, then with the water off or turned away from the body, allow 3-5 drops to fall in the palm of the hand and distribute all over wet body (not face). The oil will penetrate very quickly, and the body can be rinsed again, or not.

Diffuser: Follow diffusor manufacturers instructions, but typically add about 8 drops.

Room Deodorizer: Add 15 drops per 2oz distilled water and spray as desired.

Technique to Release Emotional and Physical Scars of a Painful Past:

Come to a cross-legged position, or sit in a chair with your back straight and feet on the floor, legs at 90 degrees. Center yourself by paying attention to your breath, being mindful to exhale all of the breath before each inhale.

Once you feel centered, let 2 drops of Pure Helichrysum Italicum essential oil (or diluted to your taste) fall in the palm of your hand, then bring your hands together at your heart and gently rub the palms together.

Stop rubbing the palms together, and then deeply inhale the aroma while you keep re-directing your attention back to the breath for about a minute. Then move your arms out to the sides level with the shoulders with your palms facing straight up. 

Breathe long and deep while you hold your arms out to the sides. Do it for as long as you can, and don’t be afraid to challenge yourself! 

When you can't hold your arms up any longer, bend your elbows and slowly bring your arms into the side. Then sit quietly with palms turned upward on your knees or on your lap, and sit quietly with your eyes closed for at least another minute.

Love Infused: All of the essential oils offered by Miracle Botanicals are infused. It’s a gentle yet potent way to amplify and activate the healing potential of the essential oil.
